It sits atop pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa, translating Objective-C interfaces into Python-callable objects so you can integrate native macOS photo and media picker dialogs into Python applications.\n\nThe package provides direct access to PhotosUI classes and methods but does not include its own documentation\u2014you rely on Apple's official PhotosUI docs and PyObjC's general translation guides. It's maintained actively and supports Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14, and 3.15, with wheels built for both Intel and ARM macOS architectures.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building a macOS application in Python and need native photo picker or media selection UI. Install friction is moderate (macOS-only, requires specific Python versions and compiled dependencies), but maintenance is active and the license is permissive.
